    Did you go to that school for Mutants that was in the movie?

    I wonder if Vibram will send you two different sized ones if one foot is more than 1/6" longer than the other. Seems like a simple solution, if they're willing to take back used ones after 30 days. Otherwise, someone would be stuck buying two pairs for one unless they found their anti-mutant with oppositely mutated feet.

    Hey! The foot is clean, no black toenails (for once). Blisters from the last hike not visible. What more could you want?

    Mutants unite! I think this is a lot more common than most people think.

    I'd love to try out these Vibram Fivefingers sometime, but it sounds like us mutants would have issues. Plus, wouldn't it feel weird jamming your tootsies into those toes? I tried a pair of toe-socks once, and it just felt strange. Of course, my toes have all been broken and/or twisted at one point, so trying to stick them in to a straight "toe holder" just doesn't work for me, even with flexible cotton. I've got clubs for feet, now.

    Do you think they can make a pair for my webbed toes?

    Too much swimming as a kid...

    Did not mean to "quack" anyone up with this.
